VIDEO: Frightening footage shows full force of Peterhead fire

Frightening video footage has emerged, showing the extent of the fire which has engulfed a number of large buildings in Peterhead.

The blaze is believed to have started in the North Bay Pelagic packaging room around 3pm this afternoon.

Emergency services were called to the scene on Peterhead’s Kirk Square and have been fighting the blaze ever since.

Fire appliances from Aberdeen, Peterhead, Altens, Fraserburgh and Ellon are all on the scene while a fork-lift truck is being used to dismantle a wall to allow fire crews to access cannisters containing ammonia.
